Prime Climb, Inc.has hosted a variety of programs ranging from professional climbing speakers to local climbing slide presentations.

Some of our past speakers:

Shelly Presson, extreme hard woman, held a 3 hour Climbing Technique Clinic at Prime Climb. Other past programs include Bobbi Bensman (technical clinic), Kurt Smith (slide show), and Steve Schnieder (route setting clinic), Chuck Boyd (Shiptin Spire slide show), John Bouchard (Shiverly East Peak slide show), Bob Clark( Climbing in France), Bill Sullivan (US climbing areas) and Dave Fasulo (From Ragged to Rio).

Inspired writer and photographer Andy Selters from Bishop , California came to Prime Climb, Inc. to share with us a multi-media presentation titled "Mountain Spirit, Human Spirit". This musical narration features extreme alpinism on Himalayan peaks like Thalay Sager and Cholatse, to big wall climbing in Pakistan's Shipton Spire and on El Capitian, to snow climbs in Alaska, to fun times in the Sierra and Cascades mountain ranges. More then 50 local climbers attended this remarkable show.

One of Prime Climb's favorite hard guys, Kurt Smith, came back to Prime Climb, Inc. for an incredible show on "El Potrero Chico, Mexico". This area is the future of climbing in North America.... A veritable Yosemite of limestone, the Potrero holds many unclimbed walls ranging from 100' to 3000'. Discovered in the early nineties by Austinite Jeff Jackson and posse, the Potrero maintained obscurity until the General (a.k.a. Kurt Smith) showed up ... the rest is history. If Kurt Smith comes through your town, you can bet that he'll be cranking down at the local climbing gym, and setting up for this amazing show. 

"From Ragged to Rio" was a slide show featuring climbing adventures throughout the United States and South America by Dave Fasulo, local guide and author of the How to Rock Climb: Self Rescue guide showed at the gym. This show detailed classic routes in CT, NH, NY and South America. Dave has been climbing for 15 years and is currently ANGA certified guide. His experiences were well appreciated in his slides on many beautiful climbs througout the world.
